Her London Stories
Victoria asks the twins to stop Templars trying to regain power through terror: a dynamite boat, a train packed with explosives, an escaped leader and a plot to bomb Parliament. She hopes they will keep serving the Empire; they decline, Evie suggesting she drop her imperial ambitions, and the Queen accepts this and rewards them.
Other appearances
In Murder at the Palace she calls the twins in when a royal guard is found dead in her study, worried the Scepter with the Dove in her safe is the real target. In The Great Jewel Heist she hosts a gala at the Tower of London where the Templars try to frame Duleep Singh.
